For the last two years I have been addicted to the fantastic beast that is the Xbox 360. I have a wife to be (Oct 12th 2008) and 2 sons that live with me 24-7 so how can I find have a happy house when wanting to shoot some germans or alien scum?

Easy…. Microsoft gave the biggest gift to gamers in relationships and that is the Gamerscore (GS). My partner is the kind of woman that likes her man to be better than others and is obsessive compulsive with things such as the TV / Radio volume can’t be on an odd number and neither can my Gamerscore so she takes great pleasure in following my achievement unlocks during any game I play AND has a happy face whilst doing so!

So, we have new maps for the game of 2007 coming tomorrow 03/04/2008 and I for one CANNOT WAIT.

Maps are Broadcast, Creek, Killhouse, and Chinatown and look really good. These maps are a godsend from Infinity Ward and will keep people playing for a long time to come (me included). The maps will be available for purchase over Xbox live for 800mp which is a bargain plus we get the extra benefit of having the maps a whole 21 days before the PS3 get them. Why we get them first is an obvious fact but that’s a completely different topic that I will not get into here.

For those that have been living under a rock and haven’t seen the maps yet here are some screenshots.

I have been playing my XBOX 360 on my 50″ Sony Bravia – Rear Projection for around a year now but lately i have noticed a nasty ghosting of the text an images.

This problem has caused me to actually die!! no really…. i have died numerous times on Call of Duty 4 and its all because of Sony, The bastards (My excuse and i am sticking to it ;p)

When playing games like COD4 and Assassins Creed it is unfair that you are unable to witness the true greatness and quality in the graphics so i was forced to smash up the TV and buy a new 14″ Portable……Well, actually, I found out how to solve the problem so my beloved TV was my friend again.
